GINGER DRUNKARDS.
The Incandescent Triple Loved
by Some Hard Drinkers.

by Some Hard Drinkers.
Brooklyn Eagle
Few people are aware of the extent
OF peculiar kind of dissipation known
as ginger drinking. The article used is
the essence of ginger, such as is put up
IN the several proprietary preparations
known to the trade, or the alcoholic ex-
tract ordinarily sold over the druggists
counter. Ha ing once acquired liking
for 1t, the victim becomes as much a
slave to his appetite as the opium eater.
or the votary of cocaine. In its effect
1t is much the most injurious of all such
practices, for, in the course of time, it
destroys the coating of the stomach and
dooms Its victim to slow and agonizing
death. The druggist who told me about
the thing says that as ginger essence
alcohol and whisky less than 50
per cent, the former is therefore
twice as Intoxicating. In fact, this
is the reason why it is used by hardened
Old toperS whose StomachS are no longer
capable OF intoxicating stimulation from
whisky. They need the more powerful
agency OF the pure alcohol in the ginger
extract. He told me he had two regular
cuSt0merS-One a woman who had con-
tracted the nablt through employing the
ginger on several occasions for St0machic
pains. The relief it afforded her was so
grateful that she toek it upon any recur-
renee of her trouble. She found, too.
that the slight eXhilaration of the alec
hol banished mental depression. In
this way she got to using it regularly,
and finally to such excess that she was
often grossly Intoxicated. Large doses
induce profound lethargic Slumber
which will last in some cases for
twenty-fOur hours. His other customer
was peddler who came at certain
hour every morning, bought four
ounce bottle and drank its contents nv
noon. The man craved the stuff SO
ardently that he was unable to 90 about
his business until he had set the MAJ
chinery of his stomach in operation and
started the circulation of the blood by
means of the fiery draught He says
that the habit is well known to the drug
trade.

POWDERLY DECLINES.

MIR. PowDERLY, who has SO long and
so well presided over the Knights of
Labor, announces that he will positively
not be a candidate for reelection,
and that he will not accept the nominal
ton if it is given him unanimously.
He does not make the declaration be-
cause opposition has grown up against
'slim in certain sections, but because his
devotion to the interest of the order has
nearly cost him his life, and a long
abStainance from arduous work is absO-
lutely necessary for the restoration of
his health Many people, even in his own
Societ.;, have undereStimated the extent
of Mr.. PowDERLY' duties. He has
really been performing the work of
three men instead of enjoying in luXur-
ious ease "a position of idleness and
profit. The only wonder is that he has
not broken down before. But the
Knights of Labor can lily at
ford to lose him. The present
prosperity of the order is largely due to
his nnremitting labors and wise cOun-
sells. 1t would be unwise, particularly
at time when Intelligent direction is
most needed, to trust the leadership in
any other hands. The difficulty should
be solved by granting Mr.. PowDERLY
a leave of absence long enough to allow
him to thoroughly regain his shattered
strength. Then when he once more re-
turns to active duty he should be ac-
corded sufficient assistance to relieve
him of the mass of detail work, which
has done much to wear him out. The
Minneapolis convention will probably
consider this subject, and we trust it
will see its way clear to some method of
retaining the present grand master
workman, and yet of enabling him to
regain his former robust health, lost in
the service of his comrades.

Which Is the Manlier way.

Hoskins (Dak.) Democrat
In Nebraska rival editors settle their
differences by using pistols OF blud-
geons and fighting to a finish. In
Minnesota slightly different prac-

Abe Bradford, a teamster for the

Bradford was driving his span of mules

durate and refused to pull the load. The

wrinkled and twisted in speechlesslage

Spring fiaunts her banners in the air.
THE bud is on the tree,
Where erst the earth was bleak and bare,
The springing grass we see.
His sweetest note the bluebird trills,
To greet the rising sun,
The laughing brooks and ripping rills
Make music as they run.
The early flowers are springing where
The merry lambkin plays;
The poorest of us now may wear
Our button-hol. bouquets.

the thing for the transportation of ice,
wood, coal and other supplies.
Many thousand dollars are saved TO our
citizens by the abundant supply of splen-

crystal and ten to twelve inches thick.
As soon as the building season opens,
there will be such degree Of building ac-

for many a year. Several new factories
and business blocks are to be erected, and
the fourth story is TO be added to Oliver S.
Kelly's Arcade block. which. when COM
pleted, will make of it one of the finest

A HISTORICAL INSTANCE.

In an editorial tribnte 10 John A. Logan,
who died poor, the Boston Herald employs
a well known and illustrious historical in
stance. to emphasize IFS praise, as follows:
When General James Keith, younger
brother of the venerable Lord Mareschal
Keith fell on the Prussian side at HOch-
kirch, one of the most murderous battles
of the seven years war the victorious Aus
trians buried the body with every mark Of
honor that generous foe could pay. An
entire army corps fred salyOs at the grave,
and Marshal Lacy himself ofiiciated as
chief mourner. Beside being glorious
soldiers, the two Keiths were, in Carlyle's
phrase as honest as the sunlight" and
the Lord Mareschsl, writing of his bereays-
nent 10 Frederick the Great, said MY
brother leaves NE q noble legacy, sire. Last
wear he had Bohemia under ransom-and
his personal estate is seventy ducatS."
The Herald proceeds to compare General
Logan with General Keith, (who has liT'nc
relatives in Scotland and tinerics who
are proud tn Pay honor TO his memory in
the following:
Logan was great soldier, a great sena-
tor. and he died poor man. His personal
estate was very much of the Keith pattern
s-honorably small. keith'S name has come
hown TO the present day. LOgan's name
has pure place in the memory Of his coun-
trymen for generations. Both will be re-
numbered by an admirinE world when
scores of milliOnaires who now walk the
earth as If they owned il, are well forgotten.
II is the rarest thing to find an epitaph in
gilt letters that last. Test the point for
yourself. You have no trouble in giving
the names of scores Of men who won emf
mence in war. or politics, or art, long cen
turies back. But We doubt if you can on
the instant cite the name of single mil
lionaire of the last generation, unless he
was noted for something more memorable
than wealth.
